Written question WQ86331

Since 2018, we have not published any teacher assessment data at a sub-national level. This approach has been taken to refocus assessment back to its primary purpose of supporting young people’s learning and to discuss this with their parents and carers.

The decision not to publish this information was subject to a full consultation with stakeholders and a summary of the outcome can be found here.

This change has helped shift the focus of assessment back to informing better teaching and learning, addressing some of the previous unintended consequences arising from its use in school accountability.

National level Key Stage 3 core subjects data continue to be published at Stats Wales - Examinations and Assessments.
